Owner Spotlight: Don Sazama

Don started Sazama Design Build Remodel in 1987. As a Master Carpenter, Don has always had an eye for design and heightened his business skills through owning a local Milwaukee bar/restaurant. Looking for a new challenge and a way to bring superior craftsmanship to residential remodeling in Milwaukee, Sazama Design Build Remodel LLC was born.

Don was born and raised in Milwaukee and currently lives with his wife, Maribeth and their dog, Duke, in Elm Grove. Don is the proud parent of Mike and Nikki and loving grandpa of Adalyn and Lydia. Don’s passion for home remodeling flows into his personal life, as he and Maribeth are remodeling their contemporary home from top to bottom.

In addition to spending time with his family, Don enjoys classic cars and tries to hit the open road as often as possible. He also enjoys attending Bucks game with our Project Manager, Carlos and other lucky members of the Sazama team. Don loves to support local businesses and appreciates a nice wine in combination with good conversation.
